But then, Just as Stuart also noted, why is it inserting the empty line at
the top, with the cursor on that line. Does not make sense to me, but it
looks _very_ inviting to just start typing whatever response and then
press send.

Nor am I looking for a flame war (too old for that). However what I would
like to have is the _possibility_ to configure Evolution to behave as it
did for a very long time, ie.
quote-message-and-put-the-prompt-under-the-quote. No need to trim when you
have the possibility to highlight a section of a message and then press
reply and presto, only that section is quoted in your reply. Kudos to
whoever implemented that functionality.
